The Perilous Plot

After years of meticulous manipulation, your plans are nearing completion. You are so close to your goal you can taste it. And then they arrive. Those who plan on thwarting you. Perhaps they did not mean to be heroes. But now they stand in your way. And that is unacceptable. You must stop them before they can derail your dastardly plot!

Will you be able to collect all the plot points you need to succeed? Or will the strength of your gaze cause the heroes to faint? Will you give up, knowing you have been outmatched? Or will you run out of time, as you have a mere 50 days before your plans are utterly unsalvageable?
